Functinal Alcoholics


HearMeRoar

Recommended Posts

I'm a nurse and am slowly coming to the realization that I might be a functional alcoholic... Are you one?

So my questions are this; are you a functional alcoholic, and if so is it necessarily a bad thing? It seems to help me get through week to week. It's also easier then having to feel feelings. It also makes awful Panther loses a lot easier to handle. I know at the Vikings game I spent a god-awful amount on beer at the stadium and later at the bar on liquor to forget that loss!

So what say you huddle?

Edited to say that the error in spelling in the thread title was due to me being an alcoholic

What and how much do you consume on a day to day basis?

A good rule to go by is: anything under a fifth of liquor and 8 joints a day, you don't really have a problem yet.

But if it's 9 joints, you might want to talk with someone.

I've known a few....they never got hammered per se, just kept slowly drinking all day keeping a buzz and going on. One of my parents best friends was one for about 30 years. He drove a flower truck all day and would hit the ABC store in the morning and nurse a sprite and gin drink all day. Never got a DUI in 30 years amazingly.

    • The thing with cleaning house… who the hell wants to actually work for Tepper?! What good coach with options would take that gig? There are literally 31  better teams to work for…. This is the WORST place for a coach to work… and it’s not even close. Auto-firing staff after 1-2 years will only make things worse.  If candidates know they are going to be auto-fired when being dumped in to an impossible situation, then why even apply? Tepp has to show candidates that he’s calmed the f down. The best thing is for him to not make any major franchise decisions for a while.  Just imagine where we would be right now with Wilks, Darnold, Foreman, Luvu, Moore,  the king’s ransom they were offered for Burns and the picks they traded away for Young… tell me with a straight face that blowing all of that up was the right move compared to where we are today. Wilks and Darnold were bridges to a better place.  My point being, EVERY major franchise decision from Tepp has been a disaster. He blows everything up, even if it shows signs of potential. He has refused to hire a ‘my way or no way’ type coach with proven NFL success.  I promise you he doesn’t have a friend in the entire building.  besides changing out Evero who has been given years to make it work, this is the best case scenario for the foreseeable future until the next draft. I don’t think Canales is the right coach for the job, but tying him to Young isn’t fair. He deserves at least another season with his own guy that he chooses. 
    • Yeah, he did. But what absolutely killed any chance of success is that our QB panicked and sailed the ball through the endzone uncatchable. That's why the focus is on that. Why do we need to do all these mental gymnastics to keep trying to come up with excuses to cover for the worst starting QB in the NFL over the past three years? What else do we kneed to see from him to admit he ain't ir? You don't trade up to #1 overall to draft a QB that needs everything to go perfectly to succeed. You're doing that because you think you're drafting a guy who can carry an offense.
    • He needed another year as DC to get the team a draft pick. Had they let him walk before this season the Panthers get nothing. The irony is that they will get nothing anyway as no team will hire him as a HC. I'm not sure he could get another DC job at this point.
